8/2 Build Week

[Cbaka27]

Found this in another Ford Truck Forum.


"In Order Processing" Status:

• Order from dealer --> Ford getting and accepting the order = Varies mine was next day, but we knew the order pick-up was teh following day and why I went in when I did, other guys took weeks for the order to get picked up base on allotment allocation issues between that dealer and what they had in stock already.
• Ford Accepting the Order --> VIN = Varies a little but normally under 2 weeks, some have seen in 5 days.
• VIN --> Window Sticker = ??? This is the biggest unknown to us, as this is the period of time Ford is doing all the leg work to schedule, make sure parts and accessories for your build are available and so forth.
• NOTE: Window sticker is normally available online the day after it is generated in the system.

"In Production" Status: (normally happens just after the Window Sticker becomes available)

• Window Sticker --> Build date = 7-8 days depending on the time of day your truck enters the 23 hour build process, 2 days after "In Production it is getting body and paint, the paint dries for 2 days before the interior and everything else is installed and the truck attached to the chassis.
• NOTE: The Build date is normally available online (ETIS and Cotus) the day after it is generated in the system.

"Awaiting Transport" Status:

• Build date --> getting loaded for transit = 1-7 days, this varies if you have spray on bedliner (normally a day or 2 is needed for bedliner) or if you are waiting for more vehicles heading in the same direction as your train/convoy.

"In Transit" Status:

• getting loaded for transit --> getting to the dealership = varies too much, but we found the Ford system assumes about 15 - 21 days (7 day window 2-3 weeks out) for this in the initial ETA they provide. So we can do some reverse math off the ETA to find build week, then subtract a little more to get an approximate W/S date.

Oof maybe I should've went aftermarket for the bedliner ?‍

Thanks, man. Hopefully one day soon, we'll all be able to forget our memorized VIN's, from obsessively punching them into the various trackers, as we'll all be in our beautiful trucks...and can occupy our minds with something completely new and different...haha!

Great news.... I still can't figure out why my 8/4 has an ETA of 9/21

My blend date is 8/8 and the date at the bottom of the sticker just got updated to show today’s date (8/7). Not sure what that means but hoping I get an ETA date early next week.

The date changes on the window sticker when something on the sticker itself is updated. Mine changed when it was built and changed from convoy to rail.

Where on the sticker is the date you are talking about?

 

[Littlefield82]

At the very bottom just left of center.

I just reviewed everything on my 7/31 sticker vs the 8/7 sticker and they are the exact same from what I'm seeing...other the date on the bottom.
